My personal experience in the 1970s: “I’d give you the job if you were a man but you’re not, so…” Apparently I would just get pregnant and leave.

1970s: … this man has a pulse! … we’ll start him in the warehouse … wait a minute, he’s white! … put him in management!

I did an internship at a crime lab for college. College over, I eventually applied to that very lab. I probably didn’t interview well (too much detail in my explanation for the layman juror), and I didn’t get the job. I asked where I could improve and was told the aforementioned along with the fact that other people who were interviewing had masters or were already certified forensic scientists. I had a bachelor’s. It was an entry job that I could’ve done in my sleep.

1980s were very different, and since then companies started (and never did stop) to behave like assholes towards employees, environment and regulation.

The missing last two panels: "Oh, you know Tony Shitforbrains, our head accountant?! Right this way, why didn’t you say so in your resume? We’ll get it set up right next to his office.“

and then all the workers are super overworked and need more employees
